For the first time were in Asia, chose a sparsely populated hotel) the travel agent warned that the place for relaxation, not for hanging out) the ocean is chic, the red flag did not bother us - bathed every day. The downside of the hotel beach is no umbrellas. The staff is friendly, the food is bearable, were not hungry, but liked better when 2 days before departure finally appeared buffet) the rooms are cleaned well, gel showers, etc. are replenished, water can be taken additionally to the reception, never refused. The pool runs until the last customer))) until you leave, the backlight will not be turned off. On excursions and in Tangalla to supermarkets and the fruit market went with a local resident - Chami (+94 76 788 8236) highly recommended - there is a personal tuk-tuk, it can be taken to the city for lunch or to shops. We used to drive on field trips. The airport bought a local Dialog SIM card, very convenient, were in touch anywhere on the island. In Tangalla, I recommend the Cactus Lounge, large portions, delicious seafood and freshly squeezed juices.

Excellent hotel, giving harmony from solitude with nature, feel the power of the ocean, experience the beauty of the world of wild jungle and huge clear sandy beaches, striking its expanses against the branches of hanging palm trees. Hear and see the life of the thickets of tropical rainforest. Reconsider rest with a different eye.
Cleaning rooms every day. Kettle, refrigerator, air conditioning, towels, shower gels, bath amenities and everything you need for a comfortable stay. The hotel grounds are clean, well maintained. Two swimming pools: for children and with a difference depth from 1st to 2nd. The hotel has a separate area of palm trees with wicker chairs, tables in front of the beach. And a chic, mesmerizing beach on which the hotel staff will offer you a lounger with towels set up on the beach or in the shade of a palm tree if you wish and a coconut with a pipe only removed from the palm tree.
Meals in the restaurant breakfast and dinner. The buffet will satisfy the exquisite amateurs. A variety of flour pastries, first and second courses are combined with a choice of side dishes or several types of salads. Several kinds of fruit and sweet desserts. Each evening at dinner, an additional mangal is put on, on which the sea is prepared food and chicken. Separate in terms of taste - very delicious! At the highest level, organizing catering and serving – attention to the minutiae. You will be offered, brought in – the staff is watching everything carefully – to keep you comfortable.
There are strong surf waves on the beach. Swim for confident and good swimming skills. Or with a walk on the beach to the left of the hotel to a rocky cape (2.8 km) where there is a wind-up with small waves. Among the stones are sea urchins, "colonies" of crabs and ocean inhabitants. Along the way, you can stop at other beach hotels and buy your desired drinks at the bar. Went to the beaches in Tangalla regularly. Used tuk-tuk - driver from the bodies: +94 76 8483877 (business card and photo attached). We're texting him a watsap about his departure time. Came straight to Reception. Along the way at your request, delivers to the shops you need, assists in all matters. Upon arrival at the beach waits for you or arrives at the specified time to take you back to the hotel. A conscientious and pleasant man.
The hotel enjoys its correct attention to customers and the safety of your holiday.

We're on vacation at the hotel with a friend. This place is amazing! Lovely staff, very attentive to guests. Everything we ask is always done quickly and with a smile. The service at breakfast and dinner is beautiful, the waiters pay maximum attention. We arrived at the beginning of November, few holidaymakers. When the buffet wasn't working, the menu wasn't always good, it wasn't all delicious and there were very small portions of salads and desserts, not enough vegetables. But the chef always wonders if everything's okay and offered to redo the dish if he didn't like it. Then they opened a buffet, very nice, you can choose something to your taste. The waves in the ocean are strong, but you can swim fearlessly, the beach is stunningly beautiful! Hotel grounds are well maintained, rooms are cleaned well. The wish is to replace all the light bulbs in the rooms with warm light, the blue ones don't give comfort. Lovely large terraces in the second floor rooms, love sitting here!

🌴✨ Our vacation in Sri Lanka has become a real paradise on Earth!⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⠀
We enjoyed the snow-white beaches, the azure waters and the amazing nature. ⁣⁣†
⁣⁣⠀
Each day began with the sun rising over the ocean and ended with the sound of waves and evening sunsets.⁣⁣⠀
⁣⁣⠀
We explored ancient temples, walked around tea plantations and even met exotic animals - crocodiles, rams, spiders, monkey bats! 🐊🦎🦇⁣⁣⁠��
It's been an incredible adventure, watching them in their natural habitat. Organised tours of Dharsana +94 76 548 7209 , I recommend this person, responsible, prices are lower than what the guide offers in the hotel. ⁣⁣⁠
I also want to share the phone tuk tuk (local taxi) took us everywhere, to the beaches, to the shops, wonderful person, recommend +94 76 848 3877. ⁣⁣⁠
⁣⁣⠀
The hotel is very clean, well maintained, very friendly staff. ⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⠀
The culinary experience was also unforgettable – fresh seafood and fragrant curries simply left no chance of dieting. 🦑🦀🐙🐠⁣⁣⁠��
⁣⁣⠀
Our trip was filled with vivid emotions and new discoveries.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⠀
Sri Lanka has unforgettable memories in our hearts and we are already dreaming of a return! ❤️🌊

A beautiful hotel! If you need a relaxed, leisurely holiday with miles of deserted beaches, then the Ranna212 is great for it.. We rested in this hotel in November-December 2024. Wonderful staff, from front manager to chef at the restaurant. I want to say thank you to every employee of this hotel for making our holiday so comfortable and cozy. A well-kept area with two swimming pools (for children and adults), beautiful restaurant service, delicious breakfasts and dinners, fresh linen and towels. The attitude towards the hotel visitors is very warm, in this hotel you are really welcome and try to do everything for a comfortable stay. It was my husband's birthday, it was very nice to receive congratulations throughout the day and at the end of the day an incredibly delicious cake!
Rooms are fresh, not tired, towels changed every day, cleaning every day. They give out beach towels. There were plenty of sunbeds on the beach, not many holidaymakers. Varan, peacocks, monkeys can be found on the property. On the ocean, the waves are always, can be very strong, but we bathed. You can take a tuk-tuk or taxi in 20-25 minutes to the lagoon in Tangalla, where you can swim without waves and go shopping.
They went on excursions with Darcina, were very satisfied, never regretted taking individual excursions from him. Takes you anywhere, adjusts to your interests and time without problems. Works honestly, and tours are an order of magnitude cheaper than travel agents. You can contact him in the watsap +94 76 548 7209, he can arrange a transfer from the airport, from Colombo to the hotel is not close.
Sri Lanka is a wonderful country, with beautiful sympathetic people, there's a lot to like, so we'll definitely be back here. And we'll probably go back to the Ranna212.

We were in this hotel from 28.10 to 06.11 most of the time we were in the hotel alone, so there was no buffet. Despite all this food was varied, we were asked every night what we were having for dinner. We ate burger, fish, chicken, shrimp, squid and lobster. Breakfast was also with a selection of punkcakes/scrambled eggs/muesli, very delicious buns. A large area with a body of water in which fish and turtles swim, we even fed them. Peacocks also walk, we were warned that monkeys may be and their belongings need to be carefully watched, but we never met them. Cleaning every day. Towels, shampoo, shower gel and other hotel provides. The hotel enjoyed itself, thank you very much to Shahir Karim and his team for his work. Guys always with a sincere smile, ask how your day is. You can communicate with an interpreter, they always try to understand and help. The hotel is in the village, there is no cafe, no shop nearby, a quiet holiday, not for hanging out. Nearby Chami lives, he took us to Tangalla to eat in cafes, shop and swim on the beach where there are no such waves, highly recommended, here is his number +94 76 788 8236. On the beach by the hotel, we did not swim, as there were strong waves and a red flag hung. Swimming in the pool, really liked it, warm, clean constantly, and in the evening turn on the slush. Generally liked the holiday.

We arrived at a very quiet and cozy hotel, welcomed us at the reception with watermelon fraiche and open arms. The manager showed the area and moved into a room, without letting the belongings be taken, all brought to the room. The hotel was practically alone, full boarding and the restaurant was once in the evening... Five tables. The staff is friendly and attentive. Everyone tried to please us. Problems were resolved quickly. Room service almost every day.
The local boys of Chamar and Darsin took us on field trips and more. Taken to different beaches... Una cotton wool, with turtles... Hiricketia surfing rides... Shops and markets... And if we needed anything, Chamara would bring it straight to our hotel. Thank him very much. I'm texting his phone, whoever's gonna call, and I'm sure... A very reliable and responsible man. Lives not far from Hotel +94713004546 Chamara. Sri Lanka and the kids loved it. Hotel for a quiet family vacation.

Relaxed in the area. Very fortunate to encounter a travel agency organized by Chamara. He arranged excellent excursions and several transfers for us, including to the mountains to tea plantations and to the safari parks of Udawalawe and Yala. The cars are new, the drivers are very polite and pleasant, the air conditioning always works.

If you want to organize a tour or go somewhere in Sri Lanka please contact - Chamara / +94 71 300 4546.

I recently spent two fantastic days at Ranna 212 Beach Resort with my family, and we had an amazing time! The hotel's lovely, tidy surroundings make it the ideal place for a fun family vacation. Our visit was made even more delightful by the immaculate and cosy apartments.

The entire crew at the restaurant was very welcoming, but notably Shahir, Harim, and Chef Mr. Sameera, who made sure we had wonderful meals the entire time we were there. The cuisine was excellent! Additionally, the front desk personnel was incredibly friendly and helpful, always willing to help with anything we needed.

A particular thank you to Mr. Shafras, the hotel general manager, who made sure our stay was wonderful and offered us great support. We were very grateful for the hospitality.

Relaxed at a hotel in December. If you are looking for peace and privacy, unspoilt nature and golden beaches, the hotel will certainly impress you. You can't hear the noise of tourists, and you have tropical greenery and beautiful views around you. You'll wake up to birdsong. Behind the jungle hotel- running monkeys, varanas, peacocks.The hotel grounds are small but well maintained, the pool is constantly cleaned. Rooms are spacious, clean normally. The staff are very attentive, complying with all your requests. Security guards are on the beach and at the hotel. They decorated the room with flowers for my birthday, brought cake. I want to thank everyone. Take tours from the local boys. Darsina and Chamara - and cheap and reliable. It's better to have breakfast and dinner, it's delicious.
